Episode 12 - The Greenough Family Massacre

The small hamlet of Greenough, near Geraldton, in Western Australia, some 400 kilometres north of Perth, will forever be associated with one the most horrific murders in Australian criminal history.

In 1993, Karen MacKenzie and her three small children were violently murdered at their isolated house. The brutal and random nature of the attack was eerily similar to "In Cold Blood", Truman Capote's world-famous study of a family murder in an isolated house in America.When the Greenough killer was finally tracked down, charged and convicted, much of the evidence was too horrific to be made public.

Fingerprints are one of the best forms of physical evidence. A fingerprint can conclusively identify both offenders and victims.

Ask crime scene technicians to name the biggest problem that they encounter on the job and you will consistently hear the same response - crime scene contamination by curious officers, detectives, and supervisors.

Many criminal cases, even when investigated by the most experienced and best qualified investigators, are ultimately solved by an admission or confession from the person responsible for committing the crime.
